BALTIMORE (AP) — Baltimore prosecutors are seeking a gag order as they pursue a criminal case against six city officers in the case of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old man who died a week after suffering a spinal injury while in police custody.
A court document that references the gag order, obtained by The Associated Press, is dated Wednesday. Assistant State's Attorney Antonio Gioia wrote that the gag order motion was mailed to defense attorneys.
Rochelle Ritchie, a spokeswoman for State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby, confirmed Friday the office is seeking a gag order. She declined to provide further details.
A gag order typically prevents attorneys and witnesses from publicly commenting on or releasing information about a particular case.
Mosby announced the charges, which range from second-degree misdemeanor assault to "depraved-heart" murder, in a lengthy news conference one day after receiving an investigative report from police. The May 1 announcement came after more than a week of protests that on two occasions gave way to rioting, prompting Democratic Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake to implement a curfew and Republican Gov. Larry Hogan to declare a state of emergency for the city.

A different perspective:
Wouldn’t want to exonerate them when you can get free $hit by yelling “racist” then looting the stores now would we?

Good for Lauren Talbert, thanks for linking.
Put down the magnifying glass /LOL
To be where she is in Baltimore, I’m sure she’s already accommodated much more than you have to offer / hee hee
Well, I’ve got some bad news for Ms. Mosby. Her incompetence is now a matter of public record, not to mention her social justice agenda,
Kangaroo Court held in the Star Chamber is alive and well in the U.S.A!
I think I know where that gag belongs.
Half-way down someone’s throat.
If one side can release info, the other side should be able to also.
Meanwhile the prosecutors and their surrogates can go on MSNBC anytime.
Amen, and I know who that someones throat should be.
= :^)
Meant to imply to keep them quiet, but I’m sure folks will read it a bit different. I probably would too.
You’re right by the way. = :^)
I would be happy to volunteer to gag the prosecutors. Do they want it with a rag, an apple, a donut, what?
my guess is that this prosecuting attorney is so dumb that if she got the gag order she would wind up in hot water for leaking info to the press within weeks of the gag order going into effect.
I agree, she’s a very dim bulb.
She’ll be a good candidate for disbarment when this is over.
**************
Maybe, but she’s a shoe in for higher office in ultra liberal Maryland. Expect to see her in the U.S. Congress or Senate within five or six years.
Jyst gag me.
why wait? disbar her now.
You’ll like this one too...
